Diocesan Pastoral Council

Posted on by Fr. Travis

Hi all,

Here is the registration form and timetable for the Diocesan Pastoral Council in October. The registration deadline is October 19. It is not a traditional meeting this year, but “Congress” style, which means you get to sign up for the breakout sessions that interest you. What a great idea hey?!?

This is not strictly for parish or finance councils but for anyone interested in parish renewal and how the larger diocesan church can aid us in that. In fact I would go so far as to say that our church councils are already overworked and so it would be nice to have non-council members attend as a way of learning more tools for parish renewal.

Please let me know if you are interested or want more information!

God bless and thanks in advance!

Congratulations to Jared, Hudson, Kaelyn, Chloe, Pierre, Gabriel, and Abigail! It was a wonderful celebration and the kids and the parents worked hard to be ready for this day.

The kids were so excited that when I was reading the Gospel words “Peace be with you,” the kids yelled out “and with your spirit!”

The Bishop asked them questions about the gifts of the Holy Spirit. They got most of the answers. One of the kids said forgiveness because in the Gospel Jesus gives the Holy Spirit for the forgiveness of sins.
